Cooking Guidelines
Take care when frying as oils and fats heat up very uickly parcularly if you are using
Power oost. t etremely high temperatures oils and fats will ignite spontaneously and
present a serious re risk.
Cooking Tips
When food comes to boil reduce the temperature seng.
Using a lid will reduce cooking mes and save energy by retaining the heat.
inimise the amount of liuid or fat to reduce cooking mes.
Start cooking on a high temperature seng and reduce the seng when the food has heated
through.
Simmering, cooking rice
Simmering occurs below boiling point at around 85C when bubbles areust rising occasionally
to the surface of the cooking liuid. t is the key to delicious soups and tender stews because
the avours develop without overcooking the food. You should also cook eggbased and
ourthickened sauces below boiling point.

the steak and how cooked you want it. Times may vary from about 2 – 8 minutes per side. Press
the steak to gauge how cooked it is – the mer it feels the more ‘well done’ it will be.
5. Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to allow it to rela and become
tender before serving.
